We are proud to have officially launched the Small Business United organizing initiative! We are working to bring small businesses together to stand up for themselves and their communities. The coalition is working to support the Small Business Rent Stabilization Act (SBRSA)—A5568 (Gallagher) / S8319(Salazar) that was introduced last month. We are working closely with small businesses to support the campaign. You can learn more about the coalition and the work at this link. Read on below for some recent press coverage of the campaign.
